Card of the Week - November 9th, 2015

Ciro Marchetti's Oracle of Visions - Card #16

This week’s card of the week comes from Ciro Marchetti’s Oracle of Visions deck which was thoughtfully gifted to me by a friend. I pulled it in conjunction with the new moon coming up in Scorpio this Wednesday, November 11th. A new moon in Scorpio is generally a good time for introspection, investigation, and rejuvenation.

Card 16 of Oracle of Visions shows an isolated, elaborately dressed woman staring longingly at a higher destination, a higher understanding as it were. A rainbow vibrantly radiates through the windows of this far off place, much like light streaming through panes of stained glass in a church. The rainbow illuminates the desolate and empty beach on which the woman stands.
​

Relating the cards to astrological planets, signs, and elements allows us to explore deeper symbols and archetypes that the card might possess after first glance. As I approached this card, everything was pointing toward air being an element of mental salvation and a means to find light, hope and inspiration in the inviting clouds of the beyond.

​The motto of Aquarius, “I know,” and its keyword imagination speak to what’s taking place in this card. The woman looks up toward the illuminated window, knowing and acknowledging her higher purpose and aware of the need for coalescence. Aquarius is an unconventional thinker, and the spectrum of the rainbow reflects the myriad of creative ways in which it’s possible to manifest higher purpose. Uranus, the ruling planet of Aquarius, encourages us to do the unusual and unpredictable.

​Another minor planetary association that could be considered is Jupiter, the ruler of expansion and positivity; however, Jupiter rules Sagittarius, a fire sign, and, to me, this card is leaning more toward mental activity rather than physical activity. Despite this, consider looking for Jupiter and its aspects in your natal chart to see what impact it might have on your higher aspirations.

Numerically speaking, this card is a 7 (16 / 1+6=7), indicating that an investment in some form of seeking, searching, thinking or intellectual exploration should be made or is already underway.

With regard to the new moon, this card is inviting us to think creatively about how we can reach new horizons, improve ourselves, find our higher purpose, and turn isolation into motivation. Look at the fire-ruled houses of your natal chart (1st - body, 5th - soul, and 9th - spirit, mind) which are known as the life or personal houses. The planets and their aspects in these houses can indicate how to leverage the physical action of the element of fire in order to act upon the ideas for manifestation that the air sign of this card inspires us to consider.
